Article Synopsis
- An acute hemolytic transfusion reaction is a serious and potentially deadly complication that can occur when a patient receives mismatched blood, causing varying symptoms based on the patient’s antibodies and the amount of incompatible blood transfused.
- A 40-year-old male patient who suffered a gunshot wound experienced such a reaction after receiving A+ blood instead of O+, leading to severe complications like shock and coagulation issues, despite attempts to manage it with norepinephrine.
- The case suggests that a red blood cell exchange transfusion can be a beneficial intervention for patients experiencing a severe hemolytic reaction due to a large-volume mismatched transfusion, especially when standard treatments are not effective.

Genotypically, individuals are either homozygous for a defective prothrombin gene or a compound heterozygote with different mutated prothrombin genes inherited from each parent. Phenotypically, it is characterized by either a low production of normal prothrombin or a near-normal production of dysfunctional prothrombin.
